So someone is playing Turn<\/a> and I’m very excited about this, but they and a fellow player have both stated clearly that they don’t think they’re playing the game the way I want it to be played.<\/p>\n

Okay, I would like<\/i> people to play quiet dramas, and slice-of-life style stuff. That’d be cool. But quiet drama means different things to different people, and part of why I need playtests is to see what it means in people’s interpretations of different types of towns and stuff. Not every play of a game is going to be the same, and I accept that. <\/p>\n

So like, I’m struggling because I don’t know exactly how they’re playing, and I don’t think it is “wrong” or anything, but I do think that the way they did setup and what themes they chose influenced the play, and that matters. But how do I even say that? Like, even if you’re playing the game slightly differently than I expected<\/i> does not mean it’s not playing the way that is appropriate<\/i> based on the way you’ve set up the town?<\/p>\n

Like, here are the ways you can play Turn “wrong”:<\/p>\n
